"The DC-8 is a medium to long range airliner manufactured by McDonnell Douglas between 1959 and 1972. It first flew on May 30 1958 in front of over 95,000 employees and spectators and flew for 2 Hours and 7 Minutes on the initial flight. The next test flight occurred on June 4, 1958 and between June and late August Ship One accumulated 72 hours of in-flight testing in a total of 22 flights. After a decade, the DC-8 established commercial transport world records for speed, altitude, distance and payload. As fuel efficiency and noise concerns became more important during the 1970s, many of these later models were equipped with new advanced turbofan engines and re-designated as the Super 71, Super 72, and Super 73, respectively. The DC-8-71 version is similar to the Boeing 707 in performance and payload. The 71 model made its first flight in April 1982. While the DC-8-73 version was used in secret missions by the CIA's ""Air America"" program until it was disbanded in 1975. The plane's look is kept simple to resemble cargo aircraft so as not to arouse suspicion. The DC-8-73 version of the DC-8 made its first flight on March 4 1982. United Air Lines was considered the largest supporter and customer for the DC-8 from the very beginning, with their order of the DC-8-11, to the end, with the conversion of their fleet of DC-8-61s into DC-8-71s. Today, however, nearly all of the DC-8 Seventy aircraft have been converted into freighters and United Parcel Service now has the largest fleet DC-8s with a total of 49 DC-8-71s & DC-8-73s. "

"Originally a response to a military airlift requirement near the end of World War II, the Douglas DC-6 was reworked after the war to compete with the Lockheed Constellation in the long-range transport class. Built between 1946 to 1959, the DC-6 became Douglas' most successful four-engined piston airliner. More than 700 aircraft have been produced, and many still fly today in cargo, military and wildfire control roles. During World War II, the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) was impressed with the C-54 Skymaster's long range and payload capabilities, and thus commissioned the XC-112 project in 1944. The USAAF wanted an expanded, pressurized version of the popular C-54 with improved engines. However, by the time the XC-112 flew, the war had ended, and the USAAF requirement no longer stood. Douglas continued development nevertheless, converting the XC-112 into a civil transport which became the DC-6. The first production aircraft was delivered in March 1947. Douglas designed four basic variants of the DC-6. The DC-6A was optimized for freight work, while the equivalent passenger version was the DC-6B. The DC-6C was a convertible passenger/freight model. Military versions, many of which ended up in civilian hands later on, were designated C-118 under the Air Force and R6D1 under the Navy. American Airlines (AA), the world's largest airline in terms of total passengers-miles transported and fleet size, operated the DC-6 from the 1940s until 1966. The aircraft was AA's answer to the Constellations of Trans World Airlines. The DC-6 proved to be an outstanding aircraft and was the backbone of AA's fleet in the late 1940s and early 1950s. It was the last piston-powered aircraft used by the airline. "

"The DC-7 American, manufactured by Douglas Aircraft Company, was the largest and last major piston engined transport. It had its first flight in May 1953, and entered service with American Airlines in November of that year. A total of 105 DC-7s was built. The DC-7 could take 65 passengers across America at more than 350 mph, resulting in a flight time of around 8 hours - long a goal of the airlines to meet the pilot's union rules. The DC-7 quickly brought the passengers that had switched to Trans World Airlines' ambassador service right back to American's Mercury service. Nowadays, many DC-7s found use after the airlines with travel clubs, as fire fighting aircraft and few for air cargo. The DC-7B, a DC-7 American variant, was a direct development of the DC-7, which ushered in non-stop transcontinental airline service. Compared to the DC-7, this variant was built with an extended flight range. A total of 112 DC-7B aircraft was built which followed showed only minor changes of the DC-7. The DC-7B is often considered the fastest of the Douglas prop liners due to aerodynamic improvements over the DC-7, but they proved to be less reliable and economical than the DC-6 series, and almost all have been retired and scrapped.

"The Laird Super Solution was a racing biplane designed and built for the Cleveland Speed Foundation by E. M. “Mattie” Laird. It had a large radial engine and an extremely faired windshield, and was similar in appearance to the Gee Bee. The Super Solution was an advanced design for the time because of the relatively clean aerodynamic construction and tight engine cowling. Work on the LC-DW Super Solution began on July 8, 1931. The aircraft was test flown on August 22 by Mattie Laird at Fishborn Field in Chicago, near the Laird Factory. The Super Solution was fitted with complete instrumentation for cross country and blind flying. It featured a new fresh air system that consisted of two vents placed at the leading edge of the top wing, well outside the range of engine exhaust, which channeled fresh air into the cockpit. Laird provided two different engines for the Super Solution. For the cross-country Bendix Race, where steady power at high altitudes would be the key, the airplane would use a direct-drive engine. For the closed-course Thompson Race, a 3:2 geared-drive engine would give the best flat-out power. Jimmy Doolittle and the Super Solution won the Bendix Race with an elapsed time of 9 hours, 10 minutes, and 21 seconds. During the Thompson Race, however, the engine encountered problems and Doolittle had to land the Super Solution after the seventh lap to avoid a complete engine failure. "

"The Douglas DC-3, first flew on December 17, 1935, is a fixed-wing, propeller-driven aircraft whose speed and range revolutionized air transport in the 1930s and 1940s. Many names and numbers were assigned to the DC-3. England labeled it the ""Dakota"" or ""Dak."" American pilots, during World War II, called it the “Skytrain”, ""Skytrooper”, ""Doug,"" or ""Gooney Bird."" The U.S. military’s official titles were C-47, C-53, C-117, and R4D. The airlines called it ""The Three."" Of all the names the affectionate title ""Gooney Bird"" lingers on. The D-13 had a lasting impact on the airline industry and World War II. It was generally regarded as one of the most significant transport aircraft ever made. The D-3 was intended at the height of the depression and in the infancy of the Airline Industry by Douglas Aircraft Company. It carried 34 passengers in more comfort than previous airliners. D-3, a much faster, more efficient and safer airplane, was purchased by many airlines all around the world. Production was diverted during World War II to the C-47 military version and many civilian airliners were converted to the military requirements for use during the war. After the war, most of the DC-3s and C-47s were returned to civilian and commercial use and others were sold to allied air forces around the world. The DC-3 once again was carrying paid passengers and was still in service carrying passengers in the 1970s with a few airlines. Today the DC-3s are relegated to aircraft museums, graveyards and occasionally a charter outfit still carrying cargo in them. "

"The DC-3 Eastern Douglas was engineered by a team led by Chief Engineer Arthur E. Raymond, and first flew on December 17, 1935 (the 32nd anniversary of the Wright Brothers flight at Kitty Hawk). The aircraft was the result of a marathon phone call from American Airlines CEO Cyrus Smith to Donald Douglas requesting the design of an improved successor to the DC-2. The amenities of the DC-3 Eastern Douglas (including sleeping berths on early ""DST"" -- Douglas Sleeper Transport -- models and an in-flight kitchen) popularized air travel in the United States. With only three refueling stops, eastbound transcontinental flights across America taking approximately 15 hours became possible. Westbound trips took 17 hours 30 minutes due to typical prevailing headwinds - still a significant improvement over the competing Boeing 247. Before the arrival of the DC-3, such a trip would entail short hops in commuter aircraft, during the day, coupled with train travel overnight.

"DC-3 is generally considered as the most famous airliners and it earned the title of ""The only replacement for a DC-3 is another DC-3."" On July 1, 1933, the DC-1 made its first successful flight. TWA evaluated the DC-1 and additional requirements resulted a fourteen-seat DC-2 with a more powerful engine. The DC-2's maiden flight was on May 11, 1934. There were 108 DC-2s produced. In 1934, it set a record of a coast-to-coast time of 13 hrs and 4 min. In the mid-1930s, the DC-3 incorporates all of the technological advances, a reliable, high-power air-cooled piston enignes, a variable-pitch metal propellers, a retractable landing gear, a duraluminum-alloy fuselage and wings and the electronic autopilot. It laso incorporates two 1,200-horsepower Pratt and Whitney engines and it cruised at a remarkable 145 knots at altitudes of up to 10,000 feet. It could carry at least twenty one passengers. The DC's maiden flight was on December 17, 1935, which was the 32nd anniversary of the Wright Brother's first slight. The DC-3 was designated by many names, infact, all are considered their official names; its manufacturer called it the ""Skytrain"" and airlines simply called i the ""Three""; the US Army called it the ""C-47""; the US Navy called it the ""R4D"" and was designated as ""Dakota"" by the British. It was referred by many pilots and was fondly called as the ""Gooney Bird."" It was considered to be one of the four most significant weapons of the War."

"The DC-3, the classic airliner, and American Airlines that ordered it, are responsible for the spectacular growth of air travel. The DC-3 is a superior aircraft and its introduction by American Airlines marked the new beginning of a new era in passenger aviation. In November 1936, the United Airlines, a subsidiary of Boeing, became the second DC-3 customer. Initial orders from American and United Airlines were soon followed by other orders from 30 airlines in the next two years. The DC-3 is universally known as one of the greatest airplanes of all time. The DC-3 is not only comfortable and reliable but it also made air transportation profitable. It also has proven to be tough, flexible and easy to operate and maintain. Currently, hundreds of DC-3s are still operational and in flying condition. "
